Stained Glass Project

For our final, we made stained glass. We did this using congruent triangles, rectangles, squares, parallelograms, and a special shape(semi-circle).. We did this through shapes, colors, styles, and placement. The 3 principles of design we used was proportion, as everything was very sharp and fit together, it seemed as it was one image,  balance and it was a symmetrical piece, and pattern as we had repeating rhombuses all around the image and the squares were very repetitive. The 3 elements of art we used in our stain glass were Shape, line, and Color we drew different shapes like: triangles, rhombuses, rectangles and etc. we used lines to draw our shapes like the squares and made sure they were equal, and for the final one color when we were done outlining our shapes on the glass we used different colors like orange and yellow to enhance our picture.. Our inspiration was a sunset. It connects because it studies shapes, and there proportions, proving the shapes were congruent. We had to take into account the properties of parallelograms, angles, side length, and diagonals, for proofs
